Perhaps there Is no perod in the his tory of this country where there has been so much associated effort on the part of the farmers of the south as now. They seem everywhere to be stirred up to degree of activity and earnestness never before realized. While there are several organizations, they all seem tending to the same point. These wonderful energies, if,properly directed. and held in hand, may change not only their status, as material factors, but it may do much to elevate and purify the politics of the country, with out taking sides with any of the old or new political parties. Anyhow, there is great work before them. And if they accomplish it without desturbng the laws Of trade, which are as old as civilization the country will have ample room for rejoicing. But while we think we sec much good that they can accomplish for themselves and the body polite, it must not be forgotten that they are on untried fields. Farmers, as a rule, are not only conservative, but honest. Living as they do, in the country, they are not subject to the friction of constant competition, and do not feel the spur of immediate ac- ton. But may not these associations beget in them spirit of rivalry, n contention of ideas-that may end in discOrd. These questions we ask in the most complacent terms, and offer them as beacons of warnings rather than challenges of right

ONR SYMPATHIZER.

The anarchists who murdered the Chicago police officers can claim one friend and sympathizer in Arkansas, the Hub, published at Beebe, which says:
 Ut is to be hoped America will escape the disgrace certain to attach to her institu tions of liberty of free speech by the hanging of these seven men. In the annals of England there is not an instance of coercion against Irish pat riots that begins to approach in atrocity and inhumanity the action of the Hi nois courts in the trial and condemna- tion of these Chicago mem - If peace able and lawful resistance is made here to methods as tyrannical and yokes as heavy as any under which Ireland groans, those who do the resisting are held up before the country by a venal press as anarchists, and when corrupt courts like those of Illinois transcend their authority and condemn seven men to be hanged for making few public labor speeches, great joy is expressed over the fact, by this same press"
 Yet several centuries will pass before the people in and about Beebe will ap- plaud assassination, and sympathize with murderers who denounce the law as something monstrous, to be tramp led under foot Gazette.

DURING the Middle Ages leprosy even now the dread of the Fast, was the scourgc of all Europe, but it is now seldom found there except on the west coast of Norway, where it is still frightfnlly common. Little is under stood of the origin and nature of this disease, notwithstanding the fact that 1t has continued to afIlict great mass of mankind from the earliest times. The Norwegian govern ment, one of the most active in advancing the cause of science, is seeking to promote a better knowledge of what was for merly regarded as special visitation from God, and to aid in so doing has dispatched Dr. G. A. Hansen to-not China, but America. This investiga tor has had much experience with lepers, and his purpose is to inquire into the heredity of leprvsy among Scandinavian settlers in the United States. While such a study promises to be of much value an announcement Of more direct practical importance comes from Japan, where Dr. Goto claims to be actually curing the dis ease, reporting five patients as nearly cured, nineteen as improving and seven teen as relieved.

EVERYBODY approves the action of the county court in buying the old Methodist church for a court house It was the very thing to do.-East Arkansian.
 While the old Methodist church makes a very nice court room, compar- ing it with the room of last year, vet there are those of St. Francis county's taxpayers who would rather have waited short while and then built a court house which would be a credit to the county. The church building. we are informed, cost $550, and to move 1t will cost $35O, making a total of $eO for the building. We have re- peatedly heard the building pro- nounccd unsafe, and when the same is moved will more than likely fall down. Should 1t stand the moving the invest ment will be considered much better then than now. If the county can af- -focd to pay $o00. for a building which has stood for years, and is nearly worn out, 1t soems to us the county could we'll afford to add sufficient funds to build nice new brick court house. It is claimed there are no funds to be had for this purpose. We believe every taxpayer in the county would be will ing to pay little more and have a court house at which he could point the finger of pride. Then why not do AS nearly all other counties have done, issue the county's paper for the neces- sary funds and build the necessary public buildings. With the greatest re- spect for the judgment of the leyying court, we beg to differ with them on the question of the practicability of this investment, and the consequent bene- fits to be derived from same to the people. We KNOW the people would rather have brick court house, with accommodations for all the county off cers, and we BELIEVE they would willingly pay more taxes to secure it to the county. Those in favor of the question will say "aye." Contrary, "No."

Here is the whole tariff issue in q

Here is the whole tariff issue in a nutshell; from the Philadelphia Record. Read and ponder upon it.
 There is not a human being who can not live without whiskey and tobacco. They are unnecessaries -luXuries. On the contrary, men, women and children must be fed, clothed, housed. warmed; These are necessaries to living. The protectionists want free whiskey and cheap tobacco in order that they may keep up the prices of clothing, food coal, iron and lumber. The revenue reformers wish to retain the tax on ne- cessares, the most important of which are the taxes on the raw materials wool, hemp, jute, iron ore, coal. salt, lumber and dye stuffs. The tax dispute in nutshell is: Is it best to have the whiskey or free wool? There is no mystery or sophistication about this.

Democrats. time is flying. Next year we will have one of the warmest cam paigns ever know in this county. There will doubtless be three or four tickets in the field. Their supporters will, of course, come from the people. Parties made up of dissatisfied politi- clans will doubtless be too numerous to mention. And all this only appeals the stronger to your love for grand old democracy, to have no conscientious scrupples, selfish aspirations, or blight ed ambitions to avenge, which will curtail your interest in the welfare of the party. Lay them all aside, forget them, and when election time comes; when we have in the field a ticket made up of tried and true democrats, do not waver, do not hesitate, but go forward with the shout Long live Democracy" and cast your vote under that faith, and rejoice in future pros perity.

As I looked to the hospital wards today and saw that seven out of ten owed their diseases to alcohol, 1 could but lament that the teaching about this qucstion was not more direct, moro dec,sive. moro thrusting than ever it had been.........It is when think of slf these, that I am disposed to give up my profession, to g,ve up every thing and go forth on holy crusade, preaching 10 all mcp:-- "Beware of this enemy Of tho, race. ."-Dr. Ahdrow Clark, one of the physicians to her majesty. the Queen, and to Gladstone.

 I should say from my experience that alcohol ,s the most destructiv6 agent that we are aware of m th,s country.........A very large number of people in society are dying day, by day, poisoned by alcohol. but not supposed to be poisoned .6y It., Sir William Gull, 2. R. s. and Physician to Her Majesty, 1878.
 The. facts and Considerations IusS named make clear the sad truth that the children of parents whosf systems were tainted by alcoholic poison do start Tn life under great disadvantages. While they inherit strong animal propensities, and morbid appelites and tendencics constantly craving indulgence, they have weak restraining faculties Their temptation is greater and their power of resistance ie lesi than in children of purer stoek. They are therefore moro likely to fall into tho paupcr or criminal, class.-Second Report Board of State Charities, Mass.
